Chapter 820
****
Suddenly, so many court officials and father-in-laws around the emperor visited the Du Mansion. This matter must be discussed from the current Golden Palace.
All civil and military officials were placed on both sides.
"My dear friends, I have to report it and leave the court if I have nothing to do!" The emperor sitting upright on the high platform made a routine move.
Important things are not available every day, or in other words, things that can be discussed in the hall will be repeated in the hearts of everyone. They have a slander and usually will not report it easily.
The most important thing these days is where the border is, but this has been discussed several times, and it is impossible to discuss it again and again.
That's why the emperor asked this question and did not intend to discuss major issues today.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the Yu family leader took off and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have a memorial to start the report."
Emperor Daxiang said, "What's wrong with you?"
As the Minister of Justice, the emperor is naturally very familiar with the eldest son of the Yu family, but the one who is more familiar with is actually his father, Mr. Yu.
Old Master Yu was smart all his life, and he often felt overwhelmed when speaking and doing things. When he arrived at the boss, he was upgraded to being a stubborn person.
The reason is that the boss of the Yu family is not in a tentative state as an official. He is a little reckless and speaks straightforwardly. He likes to be stubborn. Because he looks big, many colleagues secretly call him "Yu Tietou".
Master Yu replied: "Didn't the emperor decide to exchange silver for titles? Although my Yu family is not rich, I have received the emperor's grace and should share my worries. I am willing to pay 6,000 taels of silver to fill the national treasury."
"It is a blessing for my court to have this heart for you!"
The emperor was very happy. Someone was willing to give money, so this was naturally a good thing. After thinking about it, he said, "I will give you a Marquis of the Yu family and you can inherit one generation. Are you satisfied with your love?"
"I thank the emperor for his kindness!"
Whether you are satisfied or not is not your emperor’s final decision. Master Yu secretly complains.
This treatment is the same as what the emperor promised to Du Zhengyan before.
But their Yu family had an extra 1,000 taels!
It would be strange if you can be satisfied.
However, this result was also as expected by the old man yesterday, and he did not intend to say anything more.
Although he is called Yu Tietou, his head is not always revealed.
Emperor Daxiang also knew that the Yu family paid a little more money, but he did not think he was unfair.
The Yu family has been an official in the capital for several generations, and it is considered to be a profound foundation.
Du Zhengyan has not been in the capital for a long time. Except for him who is working in the business office, there is no other family member to support him.
In other words, the Yu family has no money!
This is like 10,000 yuan, which is very different in the eyes of poor and rich people.
So the Yu family took out an extra 1,000 taels, and in his opinion, there was nothing to say.
Even if this matter is decided, the imperial edict will be issued after the court is dispersed, and both sides do not have to worry about the other party repent.
Just as Emperor Daxiang looked around and saw if anyone had spoken, it would be better to come and buy two more titles, but the boss of the Yu family spoke again.
"Emperor, I have this memorial!"
"oh?"
Emperor Daxiang said in surprise, "What else does Yu Aiqing have to do?"
The leader of the Yu family: "I learned in the morning that Lord Du, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, did not strictly manage the family. Last night, two maids died in his mansion. It caused a lot of controversy in the middle of the night, with bad influence and extremely bad reputation. Lord Du is the court
The official's decree is a failure of authority, and the situation worsens due to his improper handling of affairs. The minister thinks that punishment should be given to him!"
After listening for a long time, the emperor found that two maids had died. Although life was at stake, it was not a big deal. You Yu Tietou also took such a thing to the court?
He didn't want to worry about this matter, but the Yu family had a great influence. He took the lead in donating money to buy a title just now. Now that he has made a serious mention, he doesn't want to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
He knew the relationship between the Yu family and the Du family, and he didn't know what conflicts had happened between the two families. He glanced at Du Zhengyan and saw that the other party was old god, he asked again, "What's going on? Let's listen to it.
?”
The Yu family's father explained the incident in detail. It was probably Du Zhengyan who sent two maids to his newly found eldest son Liao Qing. Unexpectedly, after Liao Qing accepted it, he only took one night.
The person resigned and refused to take in two people. It was really ruthless and unrighteous, and his virtue was a loss. As the first person to be a master of the family, Du Zhengyan ignored the matter and ignored the victim, and did not divide it into it.
The intention of seeking justice caused the two maids to be extremely ashamed and angry, and they had no way out, so they committed suicide by taking poison.
Finally, Du Zhengyan was scolded for being stupid in his work. Although he was just two maids, he caused someone to die without reason. It was not done by a real man, which violated human ethics and harmed the way of heaven, and it also hindered the great fortune of the country.
Emperor Daxiang also knows Yu Tietou more well. This man is always proclaiming his own old man, and he always has to rely on his old man in his words and actions. Unfortunately, sometimes he seems inappropriate and speaks as an alarmist.
Two maids died, will you tell me affect the country's destiny?
What a silly person?
But there were people who supported him, and some people from the Ministry of Rites came out, and Shen Ai was at Tietou and accused Du Zhengyan of misconduct.
But Du Zhengyan was deeply trusted by the emperor and many people supported him. Some people immediately stood up and refuted Yu Tietou and others.
Emperor Daxiang didn't take these people to heart.
This is actually a small matter. If it is a big event, more people will stand up and make noise.
The problem now is how to solve this matter. Du and Yu are both ministers in the court, and their status is very important and they need to be considered.
How could Du Zhengyan make the emperor embarrassed?
He stood up just right and said, "The emperor does not need to worry about some trivial matters. I will investigate clearly and handle this matter well. Give it an explanation to the emperor and all the officials."
He knew too much about why the Yu family did this.
Mrs. Yu didn’t come back all night last night!
It's not surprising that this happened today.
But the cause of the death of the two maids really needs to be checked to find out whether they committed suicide.
As far as he knew, Liao Qing did not touch these two people. They were still innocent. In addition, they were Mrs. Yu's people, not what Yu Tietou said had no way of retreat. Their way of retreat was wide.
Very well, it shouldn't be like someone who commits suicide.
"So great." Emperor Daxiang nodded with satisfaction.
Next, no one in the court mentioned the donation. Emperor Daxiang knew that this was not a trivial matter and could not hurry, so he announced that he would leave the court.
Therefore, I sent someone to go back to my house with Du Zhengyan to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Just in time, Mrs. Yu led people to make trouble in Baiyuan.
Master Yu is indiscriminate,
"Master Yu has such a big hat..."
Du Zhengyan pursed his lips, and there were other officials who came to supervise, as well as father-in-laws sent by the emperor, so he was not suitable to say anything to Master Yu.
